Failed to land a blow when ninth of 13 here over 1m (maiden plate) in January; from top stable; can have a big say given several of her rivals have questions to answer and she ran well in defeat two starts back.

Behind Madame Pompadour when tailed off (Greyville) last May (dropped back to 6f) in a maiden plate; recent form nothing to write home about and winless with run of consecutive defeats standing at eight; back from an absence here; she can be taken on.

Still seeking a first success after 22 starts; finished fifth, beaten 14l, 40 days ago in a maiden plate; should get involved with so many of these having something to prove and has shown she can be competitive fairly recently.

Verdict

GOLDEN ALEXIA has to be the first name on the shortlist. She can be forgiven a modest run latest. Madame Pompadour looks dangerous while Lava Lamp has potential to improve, and Sasha Lee is interesting.
